Confessions of a Novice Blogger
Blogging and its jargon is new to me so before I start, please forgive for all the dumb things I'll probably do. I'm a Westmoreland County Community College transfer student majoring in Creative Writing. I took this newswriting class because I want to investigate all facets of writing. Also, as Dr. Jerz pointed out in our lab today, there's an element of creativity in journalism. Not that I'm always creative or creative at all. Actually, in my opinion, writing is all about editing.

You might be interested in reading this blog entry I wrote last year, about how clueless I was and how insecure I felt in 1993 when I posted on the internet for the first time.

Welcome to the blogosphere Nancy! Trust me, there is nothing dumb you can do on these blogs.

Learning to blog is a big adjustment for a lot of people, so don't worry about it too much if you make a mistake. The people in this blogging community are quite understandable, and they are always prepared to give new bloggers whatever help they might need. :-)
And just in case you hadn't seen my reply to your message on my blog, I sent you an email a little bit ago.
*points and laughs at Dr. Jerz for being a dorkalufagus*
